The more I reread the material about American military buildup in Fenspace, the more... disquieting? I guess the whole thing is. It reads to me as if some people are treating Fenspace as an unruly group of expatriates or colonists who need the big strong adult US to come in and sort their shit out for them. If this is the emerging consensus I'd like to know now so I can shutter this project and move on to something less blatantly imperialist and America-fuck-yeah.
I would like the America boosters in this thread (except Norway; you're cool, the OP is cool) to take a step back and reflect upon something before proceeding: Fenspace is a foreign country. Just because it has a shitload of ex-Americans in it doesn't make it any less foreign, and that doesn't give the US - or any other nation - the right to go swinging their big dicks wherever they please. In general military forces have to be invited into another country... unless the intent is invasion and occupation.
Is it?
